Fang Jinsu could only play the role of a tool person.
He accompanied Jiang Heng to view the scenery on the island, and after receiving a call from Director Zhen to wrap up, he took Jiang Heng back.
On their return, Director Zhen and the main crew mbers all traveled on Jiang Heng’s private luxury yacht.
Cheng Xizhou was also on the yacht, and naturally, her assistant Bai Xi was with her.
On the yacht, Jiang Heng stayed in his private lounge the entire ti, not bothering Xu Xingguang.
Actually, he locked himself in the lounge, observing Bai Xi’s every move through the yacht’s hidden surveillance caras.
Bai Xi, like any competent assistant, was constantly attending to Cheng Xizhou.
Cheng Xizhou barely pursed her lips, and Bai Xi knew she was thirsty, so she naturally handed Cheng Xizhou a glass of iced mint juice.
As soon as Cheng Xizhou flicked her hair with her finger, Bai Xi knew she was hot and quickly raised a small fan to Cheng Xizhou’s face to cool her down.
Watching Bai Xi hover around Cheng Xizhou like a personal maid, Jiang Heng felt both distressed and regretful.
Clearly, they were sisters by blood — under his care, Bai Xuan lived a life of luxury, while Bai Xi lived a life of dependency, catering to others’ whims.
Clearly, Bai Xi was the one who had saved his life!
Jiang Heng couldn’t bear to watch any longer. He got up, left the lounge, crossed the yacht’s hallway, and arrived at the first deck.
Seeing him appear, the n and won taking photos on the deck hurried back to the cabin.
Cheng Xizhou and Bai Xi also intended to leave.
Jiang Heng, however, called out to Bai Xi, "Bai Xi."
Cheng Xizhou and Bai Xi both halted.
Cheng Xizhou stood protectively in front of Bai Xi, her eyes warily watching Jiang Heng.
In the past, Dong Xi, that old lecher, used power to oppress, forcing Cheng Xizhou’s parents to hand over Bai Xi. Cheng Xizhou couldn’t afford to go head-to-head against Dong Xi for the sake of family interests and her brother’s future, and could only watch as her parents sent Bai Xi away.
This matter beca Cheng Xizhou’s greatest regret in life.
The man in front of her, called Jiang Heng, stood in an even higher position than Dong Xi, wielding incredible power in West Continent City.
But Cheng Xizhou no longer wanted to be as cowardly as before.
She aggressively shielded Bai Xi behind her, adamantly telling Jiang Heng, "Mr. Jiang, Bai Xi is not just my assistant, she’s family. I hope you’ll be generous and not hold a grudge against her."
Hearing this, Jiang Heng’s eyes flashed with surprise. "What do you think I want to do?"
Cheng Xizhou, not giving Jiang Heng any face, blurted out her thoughts. "Aren’t you just listening to the words of Bai Xuan and Jie Siyu, thinking our Xixi is a frivolous woman? You’re afraid her notorious reputation might affect your wife’s reputation, and you want to force to hand over Bai Xi, don’t you?"
"Jiang Heng, I once had to yield under duress, just once, and it nearly cost Xixi her life. But this ti, even if I exhaust everything, I won’t let you have your way!"
Cheng Xizhou tightly held onto Bai Xi’s wrist, turning to give her a comforting smile. "Xixi, don’t worry. I won’t let him succeed."
Bai Xi, who always carried a bit of frost between her brows, found that frost lting away due to Cheng Xizhou at this mont.
Such friendship moved Bai Xi.
Bai Xi shook her head at Cheng Xizhou, "Zhouzhou, don’t get anxious. Mr. Jiang hasn’t even stated his intentions yet."
Bai Xi patted Cheng Xizhou’s shoulder, signaling her not to be suspicious.
Cheng Xizhou remained tense, her tone unkind as she asked Jiang Heng, "Why are you looking for Bai Xi? What do you want to do?"
Jiang Heng completely ignored Cheng Xizhou.
His gaze was complicated as he looked at Bai Xi, with many words unspoken, turning mute upon reaching his lips.
He didn’t even have the courage to say sothing in front of Bai Xi.
"It’s nothing." Jiang Heng fled in despair.
"Is this guy crazy or what?" Cheng Xizhou shook her head, turning to warn Bai Xi, "You’d better stick with the whole night. Don’t get caught by Jiang Heng."
Bai Xi found it funny yet helpless, but nodded obediently, "Don’t worry, even if I’m drunk, I’ll stick with you."
"That’s more like it."
On his way back to the lounge, Jiang Heng encountered Xu Xingguang coming out of Fang Jinsu’s lounge.
Jiang Heng stopped, sizing her up, staring at the smile lingering on her lips, and secretly speculating about her relationship with Fang Jinsu.
Seeing through Jiang Heng’s indecent thoughts, Xu Xingguang sneered, "Do you think just because a man and a woman are together, they must be having an affair?"
